Chiefs Why you should be scared... - Page 9

Pioli and Haley thought this team would be competitive. They thought we had a shot at winning eight games.

Everyone wants to talk about how bad the roster is and how we have to cut them slack because they're digging out from Peterson and Herm's mess. This is no different from the last Chiefs team. Peterson and Herm thought that roster was capable of being competitive. They thought we could win six or seven with last year's roster.

Pioli and Haley thought we could win eight or more with what they've put out there.

Do they know what it takes to win football games? It takes players. Not signs or media policies or Pentagon-like security or secrets or cursing at the players. Players win football games.

22 guys off the street could win two games. We're halfway home and the Chiefs have one victory.

Jacksonville's defense is bad... The likes of Seattle and Tennessee had no trouble moving the ball/scoring points on them this season.

Despite having 2 weeks to prepare, Todd Haley, who was hired because of what he has accomplished as an offensive coordinator, has no answers for the offense.

Hog's Gone Fishin · 11-08-2009, 06:56 PM

Hiring Haley has turned out to be a mistake. he's taken what playmakers we had and rendered them useless.

This is a fun thread. Who knew Whitlock was so lazy?

Oh, wait...

I think he was hired because of his coaching style and the coaching tree he comes from and the philosophies he shares with Pioli... Parcells offered him the Miami job the year before the Cards went to the SB..

This team struggles to score points against everybody. You could have given this team 5 weeks off and they'd still score 6 points.

Bowe wouldn't have been the same player at all the last two years without someone like Gonzo lining up with him..

Actually the laziest thing isn't that Whitlock isn't willing to write tonight. It's that he keeps harping about this eight games thing when we haven't heard about a shred of proof behind it, and certainly nothing he has offered up has come close.

But it keeps appearing in his columns, and now on here, like it came right out of Haley's mouth.

Did they spring a surprise 4/3 on the Chiefs' today?

I'd assume (dangerous) that he's alluding to what he's heard from sources whom he's not willing to "out."

I'd imagine this is the type of assertion that an editor would ask about, and, if the ducks line up, would be comfortable running with, given the proper info. behind the scenes.

And how the **** is someone supposed to write a column without attending the event?

Granted things went your way, but you've expressed multiple disappointments in these guys as well.

And I'm curious; what exactly IS "the agenda"? To brow beat the regime until they grant him access? I don't think that will work, and I don't think HE thinks it will work either.

How could I be satisfied with this team? However, I'm willing to give these guys a chance to fix the wrongs instead of selling them up the river like Whitlock and 60% of this board.

I'm pretty sure that was just his interpretation of their actions this offseason. I don't remember him mentioning any sources.

"The Chiefs signed a bunch of veterans! They must think they can win eight games!"

I think some of his decisions are questionable and impulsive.

However, it's his 8th game.

If he does this shit next year at this time, flame away.

BigChiefFan · 11-08-2009, 07:09 PM

The way the Ravens are playing, Cam Cameron might be available. He would be my top Offensive Coordinator, who could be available.

Ok that's fine, I always figured anyone with any kind of coaching experience at all should realize you don't make spur of the moment impulsive decisions.
